4. B modeling#
4.1. Characteristics of modeling#
The modeling is AXIS, the contact formulation is CONTINUE, the cases with and without friction are treated.
4.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

Number of knots: 2155
Number of meshes and types: 671 QUAD8.

4.4. notes#
The results on a quadratic mesh change very little compared to modeling A (linear mesh). They are still just as close to the references.
